Hopi’s Creation Story: their encounter with Massauu – The Skeleton Man – and His gift of Sacred Knowledge
The Hopi Indians have a very rich mythological tradition stretching back over centuries, and they have stories about their ancestral journeys through three worlds to the Fourth World, where the people live today.
According to Hopi legends, Maasauu (Masaw ,Massau, Masauwu) was a spirit that could not die, and he was therefore appointed to be Guardian of the Underworld. He is described as a Skeleton Man and Lord of the Dead in Hopi mythology.
Maasauu wanted them to be humble and live like he did - with only a planting stick and seeds. He wanted the Hopi to take care of and respect the land.
Following the way of Maasauu, the Hopi people have tended to their corn for nearly a millennium, and the corn has kept them whole.
